This study has been conducted to find out the location and amount of the subterrain water body developed in the alluvial stratum in Paho-Dong, Sungsee-Myo-n, Dalsung-Kun are. An earlier test drilling was done in this area by R.O.K. Agricultural Promotion Corporation. The area consists of a small river basin and surrounding low hills developed around the junction of the Nakdong and Kumho Rivers. The strata of this area are made of Paldal gravel, Bokhyundong and Banyawol layers which were formed in the cretaceous period of the Meso-saicera or acid dikes and covered with-irregular alluvial layers. The alluvial layer in this area is composed of rather minute particles and proportional electric resistance tests on this layer show $10^2\;-\;10^3\;\Omega/cm$. The drillings up to 12meters deep showed only the sand layer (Form 3 to 26meters in thickness) contains water. The sand layers can not be considered a good water trapping one. Applying the data from the drillings to A.Hazen's equation, $K\;=\;{cd_e}^2\;(0.7\;+0.03t)$ to get the theoretical value of the water infilterated, I calculated it as K=13.92m/day. And again the value was set to Dupuit equation, (equation omitted) to acquire the pumping water amount the result was $Q_1\;=\;77.20\;\textrm{m}^3/day$. When the data-applied to the equation for pumping water amount, (equation omitted), the results were $Q_2\;=\;122.39\;\textrm{m}^3/day$ and K = 38m/day $Q_1\;and;Q_2$ (tow types of pumping water amount) represent proper value decrease and maximum value decrease respectively. Therefore, $Q_2$ is the least amount of water we can pump. The area covers about $1,555,000\;\textrm{m}^2$ and the maximum water needed in this area amounts to $155,000\textrm{m}^3$. That means we have to drill 1,406 pumping wells. It is concluded that undertaking the project in this area is irrational or even desperate and surface water should be developed more favorably.

도시개발에 따른 인구증가와 강수의 계절적 편중 등으로 인하여 우리나라의 수자원량은 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 이러한 수자원을 효율적으로 이용하기 위해서는 유역의 가용 수자원량의 파악과 이에 따른 최적배분이 필요하다. 이러한 하천유량은 우량이나 수위와 같이 연속관측이 어렵기 때문에 관측치가 한정되어 있는 것이 일반적이며 자연하천에서 실시간으로 유량자료를 생산하는 것은 많은 인력과 장비, 경비가 필요하게 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유량자료의 생산에 있어서 시간과 비용의 경제성 등을 고려하고 좀 더 효율적인 방법을 찾기 위하여 낙동강 유역의 제 1지류인 금호강 유역 내에 위치한 동촌 수위관측소의 유량자료를 이용하여 상류에 위치한 금호 단포교 지점을 미계측 유역이라 가정한 후 유량추정방법에 따른 적용성 검토를 위해 강우-유출모형인 SWAT(Soil and Water Assessment Tool)과 유역면적만을 활용하는 비유량법(Drainage-area ratio method), 유출에 영향을 주는 지형인자를 이용하는 지역회귀방법(Regional regression method)을 적용하여 그 타당성을 비교하였다. 모의된 결과, 동촌 금호 단포교 지점의 연간 상하류 유량비교에서 유량반전은 없었으며 비유량법의 유량추정에서는 높은 상관성을 보였으나 2008년과 2009년의 가뭄으로 인하여 강우-유출모형의 유량추정에서는 낮은 상관성을 보여주었다. 지역회귀방법에서는 수위관측소별 유황자료를 종속변수로 유역면적, 유역평균경사, 유로연장을 독립변수로 하는 회귀식을 산정하여 비교하였으나 본 연구에서는 사용된 자료수가 적고 수리구조물을 이용한 회귀수량 등으로 인하여 갈수량이 실측유량과는 다소 차이가 발생하였다. 미계측 유역의 유량추정시에는 자료의 축척기간과 연도별로 안정된 호우사상, 유역의 적절한 배분에 따라 결과치가 좌우되며 본 연구에서 사용된 유량추정은 관측 자료를 기초로 한 간접적인 방법들이였다. 결과적으로 금호강 유역의 동촌 지점을 이용하여 유량추정방법들을 적용해본 결과 비유량법과 강우-유출모형을 사용하는 것이 적정하였으나 관측 자료의 축적기간이 길고 상하류 간의 유량이 안정된 유역에서는 지역회귀방법의 적용으로도 안정된 유량을 산정할 것이라고 판단된다.

금호강 유역은 낙동강 유역에 위치한 22개 중권역에서도 본류에 유입되는 하천 규모가 크기 때문에 본류에 큰 영향을 미친다. 이로 인해 금호강에서 유출되는 유량과 비점오염원 부하량에 대한 정확한 분석이 반드시 필요한 상황이다. 더욱이, 기후변화로 인해 태풍이나 국지성 호우의 발생이 빈번해지고, 그 규모 역시 과거에 비하여 상당히 크기 때문에 각 유역에 대한 정확한 수문 및 수질 조사가 요구되고 있다. 점오염원에 의한 부하량은 강우량과 관계없이 발생되지만 비점오염원에 의한 부하량은 강우에 따른 유출 현상 때문에 매년 변동이 심하다. 도시지역의 경우 불투수 면적이 증가하고 있으며 지표면에 흡착된 오염물질들이 지표면을 통과하지 못하고 우수와 함께 하천으로 유입된다. 또한 도시화 산업화로 인해 교통량이 증가하면서 도로에 떨어진 기름, 타이어 분진 등이 강우 시 하천으로 유입된다. 특히 금호C지역의 공업단지의 경우 강우 유출수에 고농도의 오염물질이 혼입되어 있으며, 지표면에 퇴적되는 오염물질의 양도 주거지역보다 훨씬 높으며 강우 시 유독한 수질오염물질이 일시에 다량으로 하천에 유입된다. 시가지는 차지하는 면적이 각 소유역당 $20km^2$이내로 크지 않지만 BOD, T-N, T-P 모든 항목에서 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났고, 산림은 가장 큰 면적을 차지하고 있지만 BOD를 제외한 항목에서 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 농경지의 경우 각 소유역당 $5{\sim}45km^2$의 면적을 차지하지만 전체적으로 영향을 많이 미치는 것으로 나타났으며 모두 T-N에 대한 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 금호강 유역은 상류에서는 농경지의 비율이 높아 비료나 토양침식에 의한 비점오염에 의한 오염이 큰 것으로 나타났고, 하류에서는 영천시, 대구광역시가 위치하고 있어 생활하수와 공업용폐수 등에 의한 점오염과 불투수 지역이 많아 우수와 함께 하천으로 유입되는 비점오염원에 의한 오염 모두 큰 것으로 나타났다. 금호강유역의 효율적인 비점오염관리를 위해서는 금호강 유역 상류지역의 농업지역과 하류지역의 도시지역에서 필요한 비점오염 부하량 감소 방안에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

By monitoring sediment grain size and level variation of tidal flat surface for 6 years (2005-2011), and also by mooring TISDOS (tidal-flat sediment dynamics observation system) on the low intertidal flat in 2008, we investigated the sedimentary environment of tidal flat in the dammed Yeongsan River Estuary. The tidal flat of the Yeongsan River Estuary lost 82 % of its area because of coastal development projects, and a narrow tidal flat below mean sea level now remains. Most of the tidal flat sediments are composed of silt up to 70-94 %, and show the characteristics of clay deficiency and silt dominance. This is closely related with the coastal development, which led to the destruction of high tidal flats where most mud settled, and the modification of tidal current patterns. Moreover, the estuarine tidal-flat sediments reveal seasonal variation. They are coarse with abundant silt during windy autumn to spring, fine with abundant clay during the less-windy and high-discharge summer. This phenomenon indicates that the behavior of sediment particles on the low intertidal flats of the Yeongsan River Estuary is influenced by wind waves for silt and fresh water discharge and the tidal process for clay. Monitoring results of the altitude of tidal flat surface showed that the study area had eroded at an average rate of -2.6 cm/y during the period of 2005-2011, and also that an unusual deposition with a rate of 4 cm/y occurred in 2010. The erosion can be explained by an increased tidal amplitude and a strengthened ebb-dominant tidal asymmetry after the construction of an estuary dike and the Yeongam Kumho Seawall. The deposition in 2010 seems to have been closely related to the mass production of suspended materials from dredging of the estuary.

We attempt to classifing method of micro-landform on the alluvial plain, such as natural-levee, backmarsh and alluvial fan, using false color composite of Landsat Thematic Mapper image. The study area is Kumho River Basin on the southeastern part of Korea peninsula. The most effective image for micro-landform classification is the false color composite of band 2, 3 and 4 with blue, green and red filtering. The most favorable time is the middle third of November, because of the density differentiation of green vegetation in most great. In this time the paddy field on the back-marsh is bare by rice harvesting. But on the natural levee the green vegetation, such as vegetables and lower herbs under fruit tree, remain relatively more. On the alluvial fan, the green vegetation condition is medium. For the verification of the micro-landform classification, we employed the field survey and grain size analysis of the deposition of each micro-landform on the sample area. It is clarified that the classification method of micro-landform on the alluvial plain using the Landsat TM image is relatively useful.

Alkylphenol Polyethoxylate(APEs) and their metabolites were determined in the aquatic environment in the central Nakdong river basin. The concentrations of APE's ranged between $0.62{\sim}11.70\;{\mu}g/L$ from the Nakdong and the Kumho rivers, and were $70.00{\sim}212.50\;{\mu}g/L$ in the samples from the 3rd industrial complex stream and the Dalseo stream, which are both heavily polluted by industrial wastewater and domestic wastewater. The APEs revealed a removal rate of more than 87% by biodegradation and adsorption etc. in the wastewater treatment plant. Nonylphenol polyethoxylates(NPnEO) and Nonylphenol carboxylic acid(NPnEC) consisted of APE metabolites shifted from NP($n=4{\sim}10$)EO and NP($n=4{\sim}10$)EC to NP($n=1{\sim}3$)EO and NP($n=1{\sim}3$)EC or removed by the adsorption of activated sludge during the biological wastewater treatment process. Upper streams have a higher distributed rate of NP($n=7{\sim}10$)EO than water downstream. Continuous monitoring is necessary for non-point sources as well as point sources, such as a wastewater treatment plant. Effluent concentrations of nonylphenol(NP) in industrial wastewater and domestic wastewater averaged about 4.33 and $1.70\;{\mu}g/L$, respectively. In addition, the removal rate average was 90% in the wastewater treatment plant. NP concentrations in the rivers did not exceed $1.0\;{\mu}g/L$, which are prescribed by environmental risk concentration in the USA and Europe. However, NP required continuous monitoring, which detected over $0.1\;{\mu}g/L$ in all river areas.

The spawning and growth of eightspine stickleback,Pungitius sinensis kaiborae (Tanaka, 19151, were investigated in the Chavang Stream from March 1990 to february 1991 as a part of study on its life history. Nest building, spavming and parental behaviors were similar to those known on the sticklebacks of Europe, North America and Japan. Bht f sinensis kaibarae in the Chayang Stream, peculiarly, showed only superficial gluing behavior in nest building phase and made two nurseries iust behind the nest in Parental Phase. The individuals with fully mature eggs were found from late February to late June. The fecundity of an adult female was about 21 to 110 (mean 47.07) eggs and the diameter of kllv matured ovarian eggs ranged 1.3 to 1.5 mm. The smallest female with fully mature eggs was 25.8 mm in body length and had 21 eggs. The relationship between the number of mature eggs in ovary and body length was No. of eggs = 2.857BL -55.134 (r = 0.890). The number of deposited eggs in a nest was 27 to 637 and thew were composed of several clusters of various developmental stages. The distribution pattern of gonadsomatic index (GSl) against the body length shown that in females 1+ year-old fishes mainly participate in spawning but in males 11 and 2+ year-old fishes equally participate. From the fluctuat지n pattern of GSI and the number of mature eggs in ovary, it was assumed that the spawning season was from February to June and the peak of spawning was early March to late April. The newly hatched vouns was found at late April and their body length was about 10 mm. The vouns (O+) grew rapidly until late August. Then their srowth was slowed down and finallY ceased in midautumn. The young reached about 35 mm BL in their first year of life. The halting of growth was lasted to next Sune when the spawning season would be nearly closed. They (1+) began to grow asain from late june, grew rapidly until tate september and reached about 415 mm BL. Then there was no more grouvth until to die as 2+ yearold fish. Therefore it was assumed that the life span of P. sinensis kaibarae in the Chavang Stream would be about ko years. The relationship between the body length and the body weight was logBW = 2.9541ogBL -4.802 (r = 0.998).

Chilgok District is a historical area, which has had a certain amount of development. It has its own regional characteristics originating from its isolation from the existing built up area of Daegu City by the Kumho River This study explores the historical development processes and pending development issues of Chilgok District. In 1640 after the Japanese invasion of Korea in 1592, the district upgraded into Chilgok Dohobu due to its importance as a transportation hub of Youngnamdaero(the main road of Youngnam province in Chosun Dynasty). In its early stages, the government office was located in Kasan fortress, later the of office was moved to Eupnae-Dong. The Chilgok district has experienced a developmental lag resulting from the office's removal to Waegwan, located on the Kyungbu railroad since 1914. Later, due to the increasing influence of nearby Daegu City, urbanization continued gradually. Finally in 1981 Chilgok district was officially incorporated into Daegu Metropolitan City. In the later 1980s, the housing land development project was applied into the district centered on the alluvial plain of Palgeo-Cheon(stream) of the Northern part of Taejun-Bridge. Although the old built up zone was excluded from public sector development projects, private sector development has made the zone a modern town. Now, Chilgok district has transformed into a high-density residential new town in which high-rise apartment complexes mingle with numerous houses. As the district has developed, traffic jams have become a hot issue and it is going to get worse than now as the development continues. To solve this problem, Daegu city needs to swiftly construct the fourth belt way and the third subway line.

Daemyung retarding basin located near the confluence floodplain of the Nakdong and Kumho River is a large spawning site for the endangered Kaloula borealis, and needs for protecting the habitat of the endangered species are increasing. However, scientific studies are rarely conducted on the population characteristics and ecological knowledge on the species in the basin. This paper aims to estimate the population size and spatial distribution of the species that inhabited at the Daemyung retarding basin, using the capture-recapture method. Also, pitfall traps were installed in each habitat types classified with micro-topographic features, slope aspects, and vegetation communities to identify the spatial distribution characteristics of the Kaloula borealis of each habitat in the retarding basin. Field survey on the species was conducted from May 2013 to October 2014, showing that the species emerged in May, became more active during July and August and started to hibernate at the end of October. Using capture-recapture method, the first survey was carried out from July to August, 2014. Ninety-eight toads were captured, marked, and released back into the site. In the second survey, 68 toads including 5 marked toads of the previous survey were captured. Based on these two-sample surveys, around 535-2,131 individual toads are estimated to inhabit the Daemyung retarding basin. Fifty-seven pitfall traps were installed in four habitat types: mounded and vegetated flatland, lowland swamps, and slope areas of both the southern and western parts of the basin in order to delineate spatial abundance of the endangered Kaloula borealis during the rainy season when the species is actively spawning. Pitfall traps at the spatially explicit array indicated that the species gradually move to the slope areas near the Daemyung stream, showing high occurrence density of the Kaloula borealis compared to the lowland swamps after the spawning season. The emergence of Kaloula borealis in the lowland swamps appeared to be comparatively higher during the spawning season. However, after the spawning season the toads species rapidly moved into the neighboring land of relatively high elevation such as the slope area towards the Dalsung protected wetlands and Daemyung River. These results are closely related to the migration patterns that toads tend to return to the sheltering sites and/or hibernating grounds after the spawning season. Also, the Kaloula borealis moved to the nearest high-level vegetated areas as the lowland swamps of their spawning grounds deteriorated with the expansion of permanent ponds due to the rise in the groundwater level.
